Re: Where is DateBk these days?

A bit less snark, please?  Pimlico is/was a one-man operation, selling a great product for a very low price. When the market changed from PDAs to smartphones, it became a major problem, because Apple was the dominant player at the time, and they wouldn't allow the sort of tricks DateBk uses to manage the default calendar, so selling through the AppStore was out. I suppose it would be possible to get an Android version but, as you mention, there are platform differences in the Android world that aren't there in iOS (and weren't on PalmOS, either) that would complicate the development effort. I'm sure a Nexus-compatible version could be created…but would you be willing to pay a reasonable price for the effort?  Or is it easier to just sit back and hurl sarcastic rhetoric when you don't get everything you want. RIGHT NOW!!!!!

I bet you have had a target market that would have loved throwing money at your app but it seems you've done a very poor job of marketing it to people with devices who could benefit from it.  Nice business model.

I couldn't believe when I last looked that it was a desktop-only app and that even though it was written in Java there wasn't an easy setup for Mac computers.  Talk about limiting your user base .....  Hoping this situation has changed.
